So I've seen it both ways: the Democrats only care about abortion and they're willing to sell out the troops so that women can have them OR the Republicans are willing to stop the government because they care more about what women they'll never meet choose to do with their own bodies than helping run the country.

Here's what I've learned: this country is fucking lame.

Shit, I'm still trying to figure out how Republicans call Obama's Health Care Reform plan Socialism, and the Democrats call Ryan's Medicare Reform evil, when they're pretty damn near the same thing.

In the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll released Tuesday, roughly one in four Americans said they sympathize more with the Confederacy than the Union, a figure that rises to nearly four in ten among white Southerners.

Because big government infringed on their property rights.

The problem with the Civil War is that it was one of the few conflicts in which we allowed the history to be largely written by the losers. Jefferson Davis had written his memoirs and the myth of the Lost Cause was out long before anyone else presented a conflicting view. Southern historians dominated for years. Hell, even though the "Dunning School" has supposedly been discarded, I was taught (and I'm sure many of you were, too) that "THE CIVIL WAR WAS NOT FOUGHT OVER SLAVERY ORIGINALLY." Which is funny, if one ever reads South Carolina's justification for seceding, considering the entire thing (after a historical background of the Constitution that makes the case for secession being legal) revolves around slavery.

I took 12 units of Civil War and Reconstruction history from Kenneth M. Stampp at Cal.  He spent a lot of time teaching us about the Revisionists.

Most of us here didn't go to high school in Iowa.

I was taught the War of Northern Aggression was caused by Lincoln being an evil robot clone created by a time-traveling Barack Obama.

That's awesome, Stew. I've read his book. The man did the study of history a great service. Sad that it never occurred to anyone before him that the slaves might have a slightly different view of slavery than the slaveowners.
